Tom T. Hall Kentucky In The Morning
I will sing of a place that you may have seen
In the eastern half of our land so green
Where the sun is warm and the sky is blue
And the love of a girl is true
Kentucky in the morning
Trimmed in green and blue
Kentucky in the morning
I was only passing through
There's a bird that sings something sweet and pure
That tune goes on while the beat sounds sure
Oh if I could hum that old song today
I could chase my blues away
Kentucky in the morning
Trimmed in green and blue
Kentucky in the morning
I was only passing through
Oh, I can't recall how I came to go
By Kentucky shores on the Ohio
As I crossed that bridge I looked back to say
I will sing you a song someday
Kentucky in the morning
Trimmed in green and blue
Kentucky in the morning
I was only passing through
